The Expansion Draft for New York City FC and Orlando City SC is complete, so now it's time to shift our focus to the annual Re-Entry Draft. The first phase will take place tomorrow, December 12, followed by a second phase on Thursday, December 18. The Re-Entry Draft is a chance for veterans in this league, whose contracts weren't picked up at the end of the season or whose options were declined, to move within the League. Here's how it all works.
- RELATED: Expansion Draft Recap
The Re-Entry Draft will follow the same order as the SuperDraft, based on where each MLS team finished last season, with Orlando City SC picking first and New York City FC picking second.
Players are available in the Re-Entry draft if:
- If a player has played at least three years in MLS, is 23 or older, and has had their option declined by their current club, they are eligible for and available in the Re-Entry Process at their option salary.
- If a player has at least four years experience in MLS, is 25 or older, is out of contract and their current club doesn’t offer them a new contract at their previous salary, they are eligible for and available in the Re-Entry Process at their previous season’s salary.
- If a player has played at least eights years in MLS, is 30 years or older, is out of-contract and their club does not resign them to a new contract, they are eligible for and available in the Re-Entry Process for at least 105% of their previous salary.
